Answer:

A tree that possesses scale or needle-like leaves and cones that remains green throughout the year is known as a conifer. Some of the examples of conifers are cedars, junipers, redwoods, pines, etc. These trees have great economic importance as they are the prime sources of turpentine and resins, and are also a great source of softwood.  

It is not practical to cultivate the Wollemi pines from their seeds, as the majority of the seeds that fall from the cones of Wollemi are not viable, and their cultivation may even consume many months. The species mentioned is also considered as endangered, therefore, it will not be feasible to cultivate them via the help of seeds.
